Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021127125A1] An electrosurgical wand for reducing tissue is disclosed. The wand includes a handle and an elongate shaft, the shaft having a major longitudinal axis, a conduit extending 5 therethrough and a non-insulated distal end portion defining a first electrode. The first electrode has a distal most edge configured to mechanically pierce tissue, and an arcuate surface extending proximally from the distal most edge along the major longitudinal axis, the arcuate surface having a convex surface that faces in a distal direction. First and second arcuate edges define lateral edges of the arcuate surface. A second electrode is disposed 10 at an opening of the conduit and electrically isolated from the first electrode. The second electrode comprises an aperture, configured to aspirate fluid and tissue debris therethrough.
